This book made me think of Harry Potter...and I'm the only one in the world who doesn't like Harry.

@Bao: I double checked and my library has a hard copy in now. I'm wondering if I should just go borrow it today and keep renewing my check out!

@mrsjazz: You're not the only one! I'm not a Harry Potter fan either. I'm not super into the fantasy genre so I'm interested to see how I'll like this book.

@IRunForFun: I think we may like the same kind of books.
@loopedd: Ugh. I am easily impressionable. I will read it if you do.

I put a hold for the book at my library. Also, my library has 20 copies available for ebook lending. I'm going to wait closer to November reserve it. If I get it now, I have to return it on Nov 6th.
Anyone from Seattle going to get the ebook, too? Let's hope there not more than 20 of us doing it.
